Welcome! This is an experiment, a shared notepad on mathematical topics in the scientific study of consciousness.
Much like our idol, the [https://ncatlab.org/ nLab], the idea is that this wiki offers could offer a space for us to share notes, thoughts, definitions and ideas. It is dedicated primarily to formal/mathematical topics in the scientific study of consciousness, but topics from philosophy, neuroscience and other disciplines are very welcome as well. Throughout the beginning stages of this experiment, you're encouraged to submit summaries of your own scientific work on the topic.
For the time being, Our [[Main Authors]] page lists all those which have made a noteworthy contribution to this wiki is private, so that only registered users known personally to some of the existing users can read and edit. We would like 're very much looking forward to make it as easy as possible for registered users to contribute, and explicitly encourage posting of preliminary thoughts and partial summaries. If the experiment works, even preliminary pages will improve over time when several different people contribute.expanding this list! :-)

== Goals ==
This wiki's The overall goal of this experiment is to catalyse exchange between researchers who are working on mathematical approaches in the scientific study of consciousness, and to help make good science possible. The hope is that it this wiki can be both a resource for information concerning formal approaches, but and eventually maybe also a place where ideas can be exchanged. It's basically just a big community notebook.
Here are a few examples of the kind of posts that are very welcome:
* Posts on concepts that are used in the scientific study of consciousness, which summarize parts of the literature, collect various conceptions or say something on how this something could best be formalized.
* Posts which review the essential formal structure of existing theories of consciousness.
* Posts which outline research projects that are being carried out.
On the long run, we hope this helps to establish a more unique convention on how to name things in mathematical research that is related to the scientific study of consciousness.== Guidelines ==
== Existing entries ==For now, the only guidelines should be the usual ''friendliness'', an ''open-minded atmosphere'' and, most of all, the ''dedication to high scientific quality''. Here are a few additional thoughts: * '''Your contributions don't have to be perfect.''' The nice thing about community projects is that others might add to your initial notes, improving your presentation and clarifying the concepts. So if you feel the urge to add something, don't hesitate to do so even if your text is not polished up. Our major goal is to have high scientific standards of quality, but this is fully compatible with initial presentations being preliminary and incomplete. * If you see something wrong or imprecise on a page, simply change it. If there is something substantial you don't agree with, briefly check the "Discussion" tab at the top of the page to see if this matter has been discussed before. If not, simply change the content of the page to what you think is correct. Please also don't forget to provide summaries of your changes in the corresponding summary field in case an edit is not minor.
Here is an automated list of existing entries in * We'd like to emphasize that this wiki. You can also check the [[Special:RecentChanges]] page to see recent modifications. And you can click on the tiny star right next to the shouldn't be a place where people "editsell" button to watch a page, i.etheir own work. You're very much invited to get notifications in case it is being changed. To create a new page, simply type the name into the search bar above summaries of your work and click refer to it on relevant pages, but that should be within the name to create the pageusual reasonable limits.
{{Special:Allpages}}We remark that in case there is an excessive violation of guidelines from some account, it might have to be deactivated. This is so in particular if an account repeatedly posts wrong or misleading information (confusing or invalid ways to think about concepts, e.g.).
== Users How to join ==While the wiki is private, let's have a list of users. Please add yourself. You can add a brief description of yourself on your user page, in case you like.
[[User:Johannes Kleiner|Johannes Kleiner]]For now, [[User:Joanna Szczotka|Joanna Szczotka]]everybody with at least five published papers (any discipline) is invited to join this wiki. Simply send an email to ''seminar at math-consciousness dot org''. In case you're a PhD student, [[User:Xerxes Dyou're welcome to join as well. Arsiwalla|Xerxes DPlease send us an email with a brief summary of the content you would like to provide initially (or the changes you would like to make to existing content). Arsiwalla]], [[User:Jonathan Mason|Jonathan Mason]]
== Issues ==
A place to collect In case you experience any technical issues with the wiki that need to be resolved, please send us an email (cf. Please above) and/or click "edit" and add any issue it to the list below.* Does anyone experience There still seem to be cases where "of session data being lost upon submitting content. Johannes is lost" or where they are being logged out spontaneouslyworking on fixing this. == Wishlist ==Is there some gadget from other wikis which you would like to have here as well? Or some page about a particular topic?
